Pokemon GO Raids April 2022 Schedule

Spring has officially sprung! Things are finally starting to warm up, all of the animals are moving back north, and of course, there’s pollen absolutely everywhere. Free advice, if you’re going out and about to play Pokemon GO, bring a face mask and allergy medicine. You’ll be glad you did, especially if you’re going out all month to participate in all of the Raids. Speaking of which, here’s the Pokemon GO Raid schedule for April 2022.

Pokemon GO Raids April 2022 Schedule

Every month in Pokemon GO, the Pokemon that appear in Five-Star and Mega Raids cycle out, with the highlighted Pokemon changing on a weekly basis. Unlike with One- and Three-Star Raids, whenever you engage a Five-Star or Mega Raid during a particular week, it’s always guaranteed to be that one Pokemon. One- and Three-Star Raids change highlights pretty much at random, so we can’t really keep track of those.

Five-Star Raids

First, here are the Legendary Pokemon that will be heading up Five-Star Raids, the weeks they’ll be available, and whether or not they can be shiny. Note that Raid Pokemon always cycle out at 10:00 AM in your local time zone on their last days.

• Tapu Lele: Now to April 5th, shiny unavailable
• Therian Forme Thundurus: April 5th to April 12th, shiny available
• Tapu Bulu (Pokemon GO debut!): April 12th to April 26th, shiny unavailable
• Therian Forme Landorus: April 26th to May 3rd, shiny available

Mega Raids

Second, here are the Mega Evolved Pokemon appearing in Mega Raids, the weeks they’ll be available, and whether or not they can be shiny.

• Mega Charizard Y: Now to April 5th, shiny available
• Mega Manectric: April 5th to April 12th, shiny available
• Mega Pidgeot: April 12th to 29th, shiny available
• Secret Pokemon!: April 29th to May 3rd, shiny unknown

Raid Hours

Lastly, an additional note: every Wednesday in April will see a Raid Hour from 6:00 PM to 7:00 PM in your local time zone. During these events, particular Raid Pokemon will be occurring more frequently around the world. Here are the April Raid Hours and their highlighted Pokemon.

• April 6th: Therian Forme Thundurus
• April 13th: Tapu Bulu
• April 20th: Tapu Bulu
• April 27th: Therian Forme Landorus
